Is there a built-in minimum order setting on Shopify?
Shopify's add-to-cart limit is a ceiling, not a floor: the maximum quantity applies to each product's variants independently. No Shopify page we have found documents a built-in minimum order value setting — as of October 2026 this is read off its add-to-cart limit, Checkout Blocks and B2B features pages.
The documented route is the free Checkout Blocks app, which can block checkout for orders that are outside of your minimum or maximum limits. Limits use the subtotal before gift cards or store credit, so a buyer can still pay below your minimum.
Does Checkout Blocks need Shopify Plus for order limits?
No, not since April 2026: order value limits in Checkout Blocks are now available on Basic, Grow, Advanced, and Plus plans. The Help Center’s plan note for the app still reads, as of October 17, 2026:
Merchants on the Basic plan or higher can use the dynamic content and static content blocks, and can place them only on their Thank you and Order status pages. All other features of Checkout Blocks are available only to Shopify Plus.
The App Store listing is consistent with that: it marks three features “Shopify Plus:” but not Set order value limits and address format rules. To set one, open Apps > Checkout Blocks > Functions, click Create function and choose Order limit under Validation; it saves as Inactive, so activate it before relying on it. If it won’t activate on your plan, the apps below are the fallback.
- Apps
- Checkout Blocks
- Functions
If you’d rather build your own validation: only stores on a Shopify Plus plan can use custom apps that contain Shopify Function APIs — see the Plus question for Functions.
What about B2B minimums, and are there apps that do this?
A limit can apply to all customers or only to B2B companies. Native B2B quantity rules differ: minimum and maximum quantity rules apply to product variants, counting units, not value — routes for a minimum across variants.
Third-party App Store apps also set minimums: MOQ Manager and Order Limits (free plan available), OrderLogic (from $4.99/month) and MinCart (from $5.99/month).
